11 Engines: MAKILA 2A1 Dual channel FADEC Modular Design Enhanced compressors Fadec driven bleed valve (better SFC & surge margin) Power turbine with blade shedding system Pilot workload reduction Ultimate Protection (Overspeed protection & «Blade Shedding» technologies) Engine fire detection system Reliability improvement Single crystal blades Enhanced Dual Channel FADEC Rotor 5 blades SPHERIFLEX main rotor, with upgraded servo actuators Blade: multibox structure De-icing system (option) for flight in icing conditions Foldable blades (option) Vibration reduction H225 vibration level is the lowest of all the helicopters in its class. This major comfort asset has been achieved thanks to the new 5-bladed rotor and a state-of-theart Active Vibrations Control System (AVCS). This system significantly reduce helicopter vibrations by applying a counteracting force through 3 actuators. 225 LP E 9

12 Avionics Advanced Helicopter Cockpit Avionics System (AHCAS), implementing: four 6 x 8 LCD Multi Function Displays (MFD) two 4 x 5 Vehicle Management System color displays (VMS) one Integrated Stand-by Instrument LCD (ISI) Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS), Air Data Computer (ADC) and Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) TCAS II integrated with the AHCAS and coupled with AFCS Traffic & Collision Avoidance System brings a unique safety improvement, allowing reduced crew workload and human factor mitigation. The TCAS II as implemented by Airbus provides a complete integration with the AHCAS (symbols are displayed on the MFD), and a coupling with the auto-pilot for automatic execution of optimized avoidance maneuvers LP E

13 State of the Art Autopilot The Automatic Flight Control System is a 4-axis dual duplex digital auto-pilot, fully integrated with the avionics and offering full operationality after failure. The complete set of cruise/navigation and approach upper modes is proposed including envelope protection and extended mission effectiveness with SAR modes as an option. The AFCS comprises two (duplex architecture) Automatic Flight Control Computers (AFCCs) which are linked to the MFDs and controlled by two control panels located within close reach of each crew member, and several stick buttons. Each AFCC includes 2 separate processing units (dual architecture) which self-monitor themselves. In case of failure, the standby AFCC takes full control over the actuators and resumes the operation. H225 is basically equipped with the Ground Speed Mode (GSPD) on the Automatic Flight Control System. This unique capability, derived and proven from the H225 /H225M Search and Rescue Automatic hover modes, will provide unmatched stability and precision at low speeds. With the "upper modes" engaged on the AFCS, the ground speed mode may be selected by the pilot during the final phase of the standard offshore approach. The pilot can select the final ground speed to as low as a hover. This unique feature brings the helicopter safely all the way to the Landing Decision Point (LDP). This new feature is a result of Airbus policy of constant innovation dedicated to enhancing Flight Safety and the continual improvement of the operating capabilities of its products. 225 LP E 11

14 2.7.2 H225 Additional Improvements Enhanced avionics compliant with the latest standards H225 new avionics system is based on a dual duplex GPS dual duplex Flight Management System architecture coupled with the digital map. As an Airbus product, H225 benefits from Airbus group know-how in Human Machine Interface. H225 avionics provides: An enhanced situational awareness based on several overlays of the digital map. weather radar flight plan Automatic Information System for shipping (AIS) - option -, with overlay of ship ident, vector and speed (displayed in red if a conflict is anticipated) platforms / way points information navigation data (wind, heading, ground speed, altitude, time to go) The digital map enriched by this sensor data allows the pilot to identify the correct landing point, especially for moving decks. Improved method for interacting with the screen thanks to the enhanced cockpit cursor device (ECCD). The new mushroom shape ECCD is much easier to grip. It allows operation in flight even in rough weather with an ergonomic use of the buttons underneath. Easy modification of the navigation through digital map display and ECCD Reduced pilot work-load with coupled IFR RNAV GNSS approach (RNP APCH) down to LPV minima (including baro LNAV/VNAV approach for areas without SBAS coverage) Automatic reconfiguration in case of sensor loss (pilot workload decrease) Compliance with ADSB-out LP E

21 4.1 OFFSHORE Transportation Mission The H225 Offshore favorite is designed to carry 19 passengers over long distances. Its built-in power reserve guarantees high performance within the framework of the future regulatory changes. Latest improvements on H225 have been focused on the two following axis: 1. For pilots: Reduced pilot workload and improved situational awareness 2. For passengers: Increased comfort 1- Enhanced avionics to reduce pilot workload and improve his situational awareness Improve situational awareness to prepare the final trajectory H225 offers unrivalled presentation of the situation during the approach to the Oil Rig. Thanks to the Airbus digital map, the pilot will have on the Navigation Display, the oil rig way point, the radar echo of the oil rig, the AIS indication from ships that could represent obstacles around the platform and his current flight plan. Interactivity between digital map and Flight management system will permit the modification of the navigation directly through the navigation display. Thanks to this unrivalled situational awareness and thanks to the wind indication, the pilot will be able to determine and program on his flight management system (FMS) the safest and most efficient trajectory to join the oil rig for landing. Rig N Fly Rig N Fly stands for Rig Integrated Gps approach with enhanced FLyability and safety. Rig N Fly provides an improved situational awareness for the pilots and assistance for automatic rig approach, for VMC and IMC phases of flight. Rig N Fly increases the safety of flight by reducing the pilot work load during approach and landing on rigs. Rig N Fly enables performing three types of rig approach (Full lateral offset approach, ARA, Delta 30 OSAP). 225 LP E 19

22 Rig N Fly automatically computes an optimized LATERAL STRAIGHT-IN OFFSET approach path towards a rig easily selected on FMS. Rig N Fly provides an enhanced centralized and intuitive MMI on FMS allowing the pilot to crosscheck the approach path at a glance (course, MDH, lateral offset side/value) and to tune it if any. Rig N Fly allows the pilot to tune the approach path very late during the approach (especially the approach course) allowing to handle the variable rig environment and surrounding obstacles. Rig N Fly situational awareness features allows to the crew to prepare the approach in safe conditions and to anticipate conflict with ships and other rigs thanks to AIS and enhanced Airbus digital MAP. Rig N Fly ensures automatic transition to approach phase of flight with full automatic guidance (3D + speed reduction) along the approach path thanks to dedicated AFCS approach modes down to the decision point. Such automation hugely simplifies the pilot flying workload. In addition thanks to enhanced displays with clear depiction of selected rig and surrounding obstacles, Rig N Fly brings additional monitoring elements to pilot non flying. Rig N Fly is a key element that enhances the safety of flight during automatic rig approach. MFD example Displaying OFFSET O/S approach First-ever Flight Crew Operating Manual FCOM) for the H225 in Oil and Gas configuration This FCOM is a source document, complementing the approved Flight Manual and dedicated to providing the H225 pilots with the necessary OEM guidance to operate this specific helicopter more efficiently and with an enhanced safety standard for oil and gas missions. It is the result of a working group composed of Airbus flight test pilots, training and safety experts as well as pilots from Oil & Gas operators. FCOM is aimed at helping operators flight operations department to produce their own Standard Operating Procedures. The FCOM describes all the operational procedures to be applied during normal and abnormal/emergency situations, focusing on best use of the automation and Aircraft Systems for H225 in offshore mission: Procedures dealing with optional items as part of the configuration are merged within standard procedures. Manufacturer guidance and best practices, with a focus on automated systems and Multi Crew Coordination multi-pilot work-share.
